Seriously, who still needs television with the Nerdist and Geek and Sundry channels around? It’s absolutely amazing what you have achieved qualitywise. Now I long for the day when it’s fnancially feasible to produce and broadcast scripted drama this way. Just imagine the magnificent genre shows (or even movies!) we could have. The Guild obviously paved the way, but money is still the biggest issue. The creative talent is able and willing, that much I learned from talking to colleagues. But advertising money alone just isn’t enough in the long run. Especially with so many viewers using ad blockers in their browsers.

I fear bigger budgeted shows will never work without a fee-based subscription service. Kickstarter has shown us that people are willing to chip in, but the majority seems to shy away from monthly subscription fees. What can we do to raise acceptance for fee-based internet television?
